Mesitylene has quite a few uses! Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 often used as a solvent in various chemical reactions because Mesitylene can dissolve many organic compounds. It's also used in the production of resins, plastics, and some types of synthetic fibers. Additionally, Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 can be a starting material for making other more complex organic molecules in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries.

1. Temperature: Store Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 at room temperature (15 - 25°C or 59 - 77°F). Mesitylene relatively stable within this range and doesn't require extreme cold or heat storage.

2. Sealed Container: Keep Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 in a tightly sealed container. Mesitylene is volatile, meaning Mesitylene can easily turn into vapor, so a good seal helps prevent evaporation and keeps Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 from reacting with substances in the air.

3. Away from Ignition Sources: Since it's flammable, make sure to store Mesitylene far away from any open flames, sparks, or hot surfaces. Mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 includes things like heaters, stoves, and electrical equipment that could potentially create an ignition source.

4. Separation from Oxidizing Agents: Avoid storing Mesitylene near strong oxidizing agents as they can react with mesitylene CAS 108-67-8 and cause unwanted chemical changes.
